Autorenporträt
Mary Baker Eddy (1821–1910) is an eminent figure in American religious history, best known as the founder of Christian Science, a denomination established based on her metaphysical healing methods and theological interpretations. Eddy's literary contributions are significant, and her writings are fundamental in understanding the principles and practice of Christian Science. Her primary work, 'Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures,' asserts her profound insights into the healing teachings of Jesus. In addition to this seminal text, she authored 'Manual of the Mother Church' (1895), which serves as the governing constitution for The First Church of Christ, Scientist and its branches around the world. This manual not only outlines the organization and bylaws of the Church but also illuminates Eddy's vision for ecclesiastical structure and Christian practice. Her literary style combines biblical exegesis with reasoned arguments to guide and regulate the functions of the Church's administration, services, and community conduct. Eddy's writings reflect her dedication to spiritual healing and ecclesiastical discipline, embodying the precepts of Christian Science as a path to spiritual understanding and transformation. A groundbreaking religious leader and prolific author, her profound influence on American religious thought and practice extends to this day. Her work invites scholarly examination and remains a touchstone for those exploring the realms of faith, spirituality, and ecclesiastic governance.
